Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
Epstein Chronicles. As the House Overside Committee continues its investigation
into Jeffrey Epstein, the public continues to get a slow
trickle of information that comes out, and now we're learning
that the estate has turned over additional documents to the
House Overside Committee. And my guess is we're going to
continue to see this sort of disclosure as this moves forward,
because the estate the last thing they want to do
is beyond anyone's radar. They've had their own problems throughout
this whole entire ordeal and they're still facing lawsuits as
we speak, because remember, not every survivor took part in
the compensation fund, so the survivors who didn't take part
in that will they sue the estate. And the estate
obviously is managed by Darren Endyke and Richard Kahn, who
happened to be Jeffrey Epstein's longtime accountant and longtime attorney.
So those are the folks that are in charge of
all of this information that the estate has in its possession.
And the last thing these dudes want to do is
beyond anyone's radar at this point, because they have their
own problems, so I would expect them to be forthcoming
with whatever information they have. It doesn't hurt them at
this point, right, Jeffrey Epstein's dead, and considering the terrible
publicity that the estate has had since the beginning, they're
thinking that they can win some goodwill here, so they're
going to turn over whatever. And I think that we're
going to see more disclosures coming from the estate as
we move forward, and they might be some disclosures that
are handed over on their own right, without having a
subpoena filed. Oh hey, we found this or that the
other thing, and we'd like to turn it over to
the committee, you know, for transparency's sake. But for me,
I don't care how they get the documents as long
as they get them. And more importantly, not only should
they get the documents, we the public should get to
see them. And if that doesn't happen, then this whole
entire process is nothing more than just another dog and
pony show. With that said, why don't we dive into
this article from NBC News and let's get ourselves caught up. Headline,
Jeffrey Epstein of State turns over more documents to House Committee.
This article was authored by Kyle Stewart, saida Asgar and
Dora Gregorian. Jeffrey Epstein's estate has turned over additional documents
to the House over Site Committee, including a previously redacted
name from the Late Sex Offenders Now Notorious fiftieth Birthday book,
according to a letter obtained by NBC News and like
I was saying in the opening, this is something you
should expect. There's going to be a lot more of this,
and you're going to be seeing people looking to curry
favor the estate. They don't have anything to lose at
this point, so they're going to be very forthcoming and
they're going to try and help out however they can,
especially if it might mean making an allyer to in Congress. Right.
The name that was unredacted was not immediately publicly released.
The attorney said in a letter to the committee dated
last week that it had redacted the names of specified
categories of individuals out of an abundance of caution to
ensure no potential victims are publicly identifiable when it turned
over the book last week, but that after further review,
we identified one redacted name that does not appear to
fit within those categories. Hopefully it's one of Epstein's assistants unmasked,
somebody like Sarah Kellen Vickers or one of them, and
let's see what's what now. Of course, I don't know
who the unmasked person's going to be, but according to
the article, it's going to be somebody, and hopefully it's
somebody relevant. The estate also turned over what it described
as another of mister Epstein's address and contact books. Now
that's interesting, I wonder what's in there. We've already seen
the other two black books that contained the whole host
of people, everybody from Donald Trump to the fucking Dali Lama.
So you have another black book coming out, basically another
address book, and who the hell knows what that's going
to contain. My guess it's going to be another who's
who of people. Well, you think Jeffrey Epstein was hanging
around with normal folks like us. In an abundance of caution,
we have redacted names and contact information of women who
appear in the sections of the book titled Massage New
York A, Massage New York B, and Massage UK to
ensure that no potential victims are publicly identifiable. Says the letter,
which was first reported by CNN. So of course they
want to cover their tracks, right, They don't want to
get sued again. They don't want to fall into the
trap of unmasking somebody that shouldn't be unmasked, so out
of an abundance of caution. I love when people say
that they decided to send this stuff over but with
their adactions and now after further evaluation, probably with their
legal team, and maybe somebody from Justice Department or from
the committee came over and you know, helped them go
through it or whatever. But after further evaluation, they've decided
to unredact that name. So it's going to be interesting
to see who that person is. And then after their adaction,
if anything comes of it. Now do I think anything
will legally speaking, I doubt it. If anybody thinks we're
going to get some legal, you know, repercussions here, I
would caution you to temper your expectations because this is
not the kind of case where justice shows up unfortunately.
The state attorneys Daniel H. Wiener and Daniel Ruzumna also
wrote that they would make the original unredacted book available
for the committee to review. The documents were the second
set to be turned over as a result of a
congressional subpoena to the estate. So why did they have
to wait for Brad Edwards to bring that up? Why
didn't they just a subpoena this right away, subpoena of
the estate for any kind of information they have, and
keep it moving. But no, it's always a shit show, right, Oh,
let's have this hearing behind closed doors. Let's bring in
this one or that one that have no goddamn connection
to any of this. Meanwhile, they could be bringing in
Villa Fauna. They could be bringing in Menchel, they could
be bringing in Mukasey, they could be bringing in Philip,
they could be bringing in anybody who worked on the NPA.
But no, instead we get absolutely overwhelmed with a bunch
of information that isn't even relevant. And that's the whole point,
isn't it. When that water is murky, it's hard to
see where you're going, and that's the result they're looking for.
The first turned over last week included the contents of
the book, a collection of messages that was assembled for
Epstein's fiftieth birthday in two thousand and three. It included
a racy and mysterious note that was allegedly signed by
President Donald Trump. Trump has denied sending the message and
has filed a ten billion dollar defamation suit against the
publishers of the Wall Street Journal, which was the first
to report on the letter. And now, of course, as
we talked about in the morning Update, Donald Trump has
also now sued The New York Times. And I think
that it's more messaging than anything, right, I don't think
he's going to be successful, but he's throwing that read
meat to his base. Look, I didn't do this, This
isn't me, and I'm going to challenge it in court. Now.
Is he going to be successful with these challenges? That
remains to be seen. It's a very difficult hurdle to
get over for a public figure when we're talking about
defamation and libel and the rest of it. But there's
no doubt that there's other stuff at play here. It's
not just what's going on in the court room. It's
the narrative, the battle of optics, that whole entire war
being waged right before our eyes. And when Donald Trump
files a lawsuit like this, it's him striking back right,
trying to take control of the narrative. In the suit,
Trump's attorneys alleged that the note was non existent and
that no authentic letter or drawing exists. A spokesperson for
dal Jones, which publishes the journal, said it would vigorously
defend against any lawsuit. Well, yeah, especially if the note's real.
And look, I have no idea. I've told you from
the beginning. I'm not gonna sit here and make pretend
I know one way or the other. I wasn't there.
I can't authenticate it. Do I think that it being
in the book gives it a lot of credit? I do.
Do I think that it being around for years and
years before this controversy erupted gives it more credence? I do.
Do I think that it's a hoax? I don't. But
I can't tell you for sure that Donald Trump signed
that letter because I don't know that either, and I'm
not in the business of bullshiting you guys. After House
Democrats released the image last week, White House officials denied
the signature was authentic, and Trump declared the matter a
dead issue. Other high profile names also appeared to have
contributed to the book, including former President Bill Clinton. A
spokesperson for Clinton's office did not immediately respond to a
request for comment. Clinton has denied he has ever gone
to Epstein's private island where some of the abuse is
alleged to have occurred. No, not alleged it occurred. Does
anyone dispute that there was abuse on this island? I mean,
you have to be on one hell of academy trip
to think that's the case, because there's no doubt that
abuse was taking place on this island. And as far
as Bill Clinton lying about the island, well, mister Scully
says different. Virginia Roberts said different. A bunch of other
people said different. So who are we gonna believe? I know,
I don't believe Bill Clinton at all. I mean you
might want to, but me, I don't believe this dude
for one second. The Sale Republican led Committee has also
subpoened the Justice Department to turn over the entirety of
its investigative files on Epstein, who died by suicide allegedly
while he was awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges in
twenty nineteen. The renewed interest in the case came after
Attorney General Paum Bondi and FBI Director Cash Pattil abruptly
changed course on their promises of increased scrutiny and transparency
in the case, long the subject to conspiracy theories that
were stoked by them and other Trump allies. See what
they leave out here is that they just ignored the
story for all these years. Now all of a sudden,
they've shown up and they're the arbiters of truth. And
I know we've talked about this previously, but we're going
to talk a little bit more about this as well,
because it's ridiculous and they're lying to you and they're
trying to rewrite history as if it's just Trump's allies
that are pissed off right now, I would think that
a lot of people on the left are pretty pissed off,
and a lot of people on the left who have
awoken to what's going on here, they want some answers.
So when you frame it as just Trump's allies or
just MAGA or just that or the other thing, it
makes it look like it's one way traffic. When the
truth is decent. People everywhere want transparency. It doesn't matter
what side of the aisle you're on. This shouldn't be
one of those divisive issues where we're fighting. Unfortunately, the
way it's been politicized, there's no doubt that that's the
battlefield where this is being waged now. But that shouldn't
be the case. And for years I've warned against this
because it's going to get us nowhere. What you're going
to see is people continue to retreat into their bunkers,
into their echo chambers, and ignore anything that goes against
their worldview. And that's what happens when you have these
hyperpartisan issues where the vast majority of people that are
reporting on it are not telling the truth or at
the very least obfuscating. And that's what we see here,
and that's what we've seen here for years. And furthermore,
the letter that I just posted from the Epstein serve, well,
who was that sent to? Merrick Garlan? Right? What did
he do? Did he help anybody? Did he pop open
an investigation? Did he arrest Sarah Kelln Vickers? No? He
didn't do shit either, did he? And that's the whole
entire problem. None of these people care. It's systemic. It's
not just one person, it's not just one administration. It's
the grand total of all these people ignoring what has
happened year after year, decade after decade, and they're still
trying to ignore it now. But the dishonesty from the
legacy media is unbelievable. The amount of people that are
out here acting like they've been these big champions of Epstein,
survivors of the truth, like they've been in the trenches
fighting against Epstein and this bullshit from day one. Meanwhile,
the vast majority of these people were engaging in the
cover up, actively enabling Jeffrey Epstein and helping him get
away with his crimes. Now, maybe not wilfully as far as, oh,
I know what I'm doing, but when you don't cover
the stories, when you call it all a conspiracy theory,
when you ignore their survivors, you're being complicit and you're
enabling Jeffrey Epstein's bullshit. The memo sparked a furious backlash
from many Trump supporters, and the Oversight Committee subpoened the
Justice Department for its investigative files. The Justice Department last
month turned over thirty three thousand pages of documents of
the estimated one hundred thousand total pages to date. Democrats
on the committee have said the vast majority of that
material was already public and have called for the Justice
Department to quickly turn over the remaining documents. And I
think any normal person wants that, right, any sane person,
because that's the only way to figure this all out.
If Donald Trump has nothing to do with any of this,
like he says, the best way to get to that
destination is to release all the documents. If we do that,
then he could point out every document say look, I
had nothing to do with this shit, and the people
that said I did, well, now you're going to feel
the fury. But we're not seeing that, right. We're not
seeing transparency, we're not seeing what was promised. Instead, we're
being told to move on. No, that's not gonna happen either.
So I've said it once and I'll say it another
million times. If you want this to go away, if
you want people to take a step back and stop
really digging, release the files. But short of that, there's
no moving on. There's only digging in. All of the
